Atomic and Molecular Data and Their Applications: First International Conference (Aip Conference Proceedings)

Contains the proceedings of the first International Conference on Atomic and Molecular Data and Their Applications (ICAMDATA), held in September/October, 1997. Contributions address four main areas of importance to atomic and molecular data activities: global trends affecting scientific data; the production of collision and spectral radiation data with emphasis on new approaches in generating benchmark data; issues in data assessment and important database and data management activities in several countries; and the data needs of the main user communities, such as the magnetic and inertial fusion research communities, the semiconductor-related plasma processing, and other industries.
